Rainbow Brite Is Getting a Reboot

Because Hollywood is determined to bleed your childhood dry.

First there was the Jem movie. Then there was news of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers reboot, followed by a relaunch of The Powerpuff Girls. Now comes a report of yet another beloved childhood TV show getting an update: Rainbow Brite. Actress Emily Osment (little sister of Haley Joel "I See Dead People" Osment) Instagrammed the first page of what appears to be a new Rainbow Brite script with the episode title "Cloudy With a Chance of Gloom" [via io9].

In her caption, Emily explains that she'll be providing the voice for the new edition: "First day on the job! Very stoked to be back doing some animation this summer. See you soon! Love, Emily aka Rainbow Brite." Raise your hand if you're an '80s kid and you're freaking out right now. Alternatively, raise your hand if you're a '90s kid who lived through a terrible, Rainbow Brite–less childhood and you're happy for this opportunity to correct all that went wrong in the early years.
